which Waldo NJ. Potter, staunch divi-
sionist, is the editor, says, relative to the
call for the Aberdeen convention:
The promoters OF this call appear to
ignore the fact that they are trampling
their own theories under foot in holding
such convention. They have contended
that oil resolutions passed by Dakota
conventions for ten years past, aud all
the memorials adopted by succeeding
legislatures, in favor of division, were
OF no account; that no evidence was
thereby furnished of the will of the peo-
pie, es TO that question; that it was only
the politicians IN the convention, or the
legislature, who spoke, and not the
masses whom they claim to represent.
This also has been the excuse for the
non-action OF congress, which the one
state advocates have applauded as being
asufficient justification for she treatment
Dakota has received at Washington.
They have told us that there was just
one thing lacking; that the people must
be heard in their sovereign capacity, at
the polls; that opportunity must be
afforded tor vote; and that when suoh
verdict was rendered it would be. 40.

division. Now comes che one state

why the President SeieciSd Him for
The supreme Bench-His Probable
Successor.
Washington, ID. O., Nov. lit has
been said that the president was largely
influenced by representatives OF the
press in Washington to select Secretary
Lamar for the vacancy on the supreme
bench. In other words, ne needed the
almost united voice of the men who got
pretty close to what is required by the
people, and determined to make what
would seem to be popular appoint
ment.
As soon as il waa settled that Lamar
was to go on the bench, politicians OF
| shades OF Influence, and from different
sections, began to watch the current off
events with view OF shaping conditions
and circumstances in favor of their
special choice for the place. A
strong Villas team was at once "hitched
up" and vigorously whipped on from the
start to transfer the postmaster general
to the interior department., and il
really looks now as il it had won 1t
wac the general opinion that Villas
would not accept the place it rendered
it, because he would only be cabinet
minister still, and then, the official pat
ronage and outreaching power OF the
manager of Uncle Sam's postoffices are
infinitely superior TO those OF the inter-
ior department, and it's believed now
by many that he could not be induced
to only that he believes that by dong

The Alexandra Herald does not look
upon an anti division convention as q
long felt want. 1t says:
Aberdeen is heading movement that
will reflect no credit on the town and
will result IN great injury to the cause
OF division and admission. After being
beaten by splendid majority these
mslcontents are sending circulars tc
postmasters and Others they think have
as little principle as themselves, asking
that petitions be signed, county eonven-
tionB called and convention be held al
Aberdeen, Dec. 10, to take action fcl
admission as whole. The movement
